I'm not a politician. I'm just a regular guy who decided to stand up and try to make a difference in this community.

Workers

Clean Renewable Energy

Small/Local Businesses

Affordable Housing

Ending Homelessness

Living Wages

and much, much more...

Together, we can make a difference! This campaign is about we the people. I reject corporate campaign donations and its influences, so you know I will represent the people. Big money and special interests will have no place in my campaign or this office.

We can win with your support. Your small dollar donations are so important to this effort. Thank you for your support.

As a campaign committed to only accepting individual donations, we rely on grassroots support from people like you. Small dollar donations, from many people, is how we fight back against big money and special interests.

Our goal today is 20 small dollar donations. It’s $5 Friday. Let’s see the power of grassroots fundraising!

Current donations will help us pay for our next batch of literature. We need 15k flyers to hand out as we knock doors for the next two months. Our first batch is almost out, so this is a critical time to step up and help.

Thank you all for being a part of this campaign to #FlipTheCommission and elect a strong progressive champion to Lane County’s Board of Commissioners.
